Whoa. There's two wierd things here: a) "jsonb" has a typcategory 'C'. Marking a composite type. "json" has 'U'. b) datum_to_json() thinks it's a good idea to use typcategory to decide how a type is output. Isn't that pertty fundamentally flawed? To detect composite types it really should look at typtype, now?
